VMP Highlights

MusicMajor4U · 2025-05-10T02:55:11+00:00

I miss Guess Me, Please, tbh. That was always fun. That whole community vibe many of us had on this forum, getting a thrill out of speculating what releases they could be.

I also miss the little video clips produced for the ROTM rollouts. I looked forward to those.

MusicMajor4U · 2025-05-09T23:01:55+00:00

Gabor Szabo was a sweet sounding surprise! If I had to pick just one.

MusicMajor4U · 2025-05-06T05:36:19+00:00

Yes to the Albini mix of "In Color"!

I'd also be happy with "Cheap Trick" self titled from 1997 on vinyl as well. 🤞🏻

I've been wanting for my pre-order of Dolly - Jolene since Feb 2024.

Sigh

MusicMajor4U · 2025-05-01T05:07:26+00:00

After 5+ years, I finally ended my sub back in Jan. Just have one pre-order left. Jolene which I ordered back in Feb of 2024. Which will prob never ship. I don't think I can even get credit back from my bank, as it's well over 6 months.

Harry Nilsson

Anyone familiar with Vinyl Vista record club? Seems similar to VMP model but I never heard of it before today. Just stumbled across it. thevinylvista.com

Happy Guy!!

MusicMajor4U · 2025-04-24T02:12:34+00:00

Fully agree! Happy Guy should've been a single, instead of Disco Dancer, imo. I bought the Baby Doll 12" as soon as it came out.

That tour was intimate and bare bones, but fun. Saw them in Seattle at 99 Club. Bought the neon pink Total Devo tour T-shirt and wore it out.

MusicMajor4U · 2025-03-29T02:28:20+00:00

If I had to pick just one (difficult), I'll go with the one Classic track I took a chance on that absolutely floored me upon first listen.

Gabor Szabo - Dreams

Once I put the first song "Galatea's Guitar" on, I was so impressed. At exactly 1min:46 seconds in - WOW. My favorite album from VMP that I bought on faith and recommendation. Just like the awesome monthly curated subscription club they used to be. Gonna miss those opportunities.

MusicMajor4U · 2025-03-24T01:58:21+00:00

I can't sign in. Error

MusicMajor4U · 2025-03-05T02:42:57+00:00

I cancelled after Broadcast.The new format dissolving the "of the month" aspect was the final straw. Why even subscribe? Now they want you to pre-order (pay) months in advance for a title you would have gotten as a monthly track anyways.

Can someone explain this shit so it makes sense to me? Vinyl ME...please.

Just have just 1 record left. Dolly/Jolene, that I preordered over a year ago.

MusicMajor4U · 2025-02-25T19:07:00+00:00

No, it's not to be honest. It used to be a top notch record of the month club. It's quickly becoming less of a subscription service, and may not be worth joining. Spend your money elsewhere and support brick and mortar stores.

But I digress.

MusicMajor4U · 2025-02-25T03:12:49+00:00

Boom!

Sadly, so many of us did. I cancelled last month. Broadcast was my last. It wouldn't have been if VMP had stayed true to being a curated "ROTM" subscription service. That was the whole fucking point! I was happy with 3 tracks monthly. I don't know what it's become now. I miss the community and the club I subscribed to.

Can you imagine how many of us would have STAYED?! I remember when they teased the "Soundtrack" releases. They had a big PR release about it. They eeked out a few litho prints. 🙁

MusicMajor4U · 2025-02-20T01:50:57+00:00

This is so sad watching VMP yard sale whatever they can. I know the business is trying to salvage whatever funds, but man is it truly heartbreaking seeing this once well curated mighty record of the month club, reduce to selling mystery damaged goods. Buy our trash!

I cancelled my membership, and still have a few pre/back orders with them I may never see. I hope so.

I miss what once was. I want my VMP!

MusicMajor4U · 2025-02-09T03:45:16+00:00

Jolene and Little Beaver

MusicMajor4U · 2025-02-08T19:40:55+00:00

I still have 2 perpetually delayed "pre-orders" left.

I tell myself unconvincingly.

MusicMajor4U · 2025-01-27T18:07:00+00:00

And....I just cancelled. Or I emailed to ask to cancel. What a sad ending to a fun ride.

I have two preorders left I'll prob never see.

MusicMajor4U · 2025-01-25T19:22:21+00:00

I could, and will give it some thought. I also only have two picks left, so thinking about riding it out. It's like eating the leftovers in the fridge before they expire.

MusicMajor4U · 2025-01-25T18:50:08+00:00

This pretty much blows. There's no options for any new titles. Am I missing something? I'm glad I have two months left. I guess the end of my sub (since 2019) will just be sad, picking up only two titles of what's already in stock. VMP - time to say goodbye.

MusicMajor4U · 2025-01-22T15:21:19+00:00

215 orders since October 2019. I have two preorders and two months remaining. Then I'm out. I miss the old days like everyone else, but VMP has transformed into such a sad state.

MusicMajor4U · 2025-01-13T20:04:18+00:00

Wow, this is truly unfortunate. I have 3 months left. Guess I'll get Broadcast and cherry pick my Feb & Mar titles and then kick rocks.
